Oh, I really enjoyed reading that. I left a comment on your blog because your thoughts reflect my experiences in music education...

Why does hardly anyone in academic philosophy care about reading? No, this is not about the decline of the occident, just a note about a curiosity in academic philosophy. Philosophy is a discipline in which reading is a key competence, not least in that philosoph…

The Hidden Math of Ocean Waves Crashes Into View | Quanta Magazine The math of even the simplest ocean waves is notoriously uncooperative. A team of Italian mathematicians has made major advances toward understanding it.

🌊 Waves are weird: Make the tiniest change to the initial state of their particles, and they might evolve in vastly different ways — bumps and eddies can become rogue waves and tsunamis.

Judith Butler is being targeted by the US government. We must stand up | Joel Swanson What is happening to Judith Butler – a Jewish intellectual – in the name of fighting ‘antisemitism’ is outrageous

"The function of art is to do more than tell it like it is—it's to imagine what is possible" in red letters on a mirrored glass door. The quote is from bell hooks, “Outlaw Culture: Resisting Representations,” 2012.

Two Years After Cormac McCarthy's Death, Rare Access to His Personal Library Reveals the Man Behind the Myth The famously reclusive novelist amassed a collection of thousands of books ranging in topics from philosophical treatises to advanced mathematics to the naked mole-rat

Apparently Cormac McCarthy (author of The Road and No Country for Old Men) was a big fan of Wittgenstein and read (and annotated) Penelope Maddy’s Realism in Mathematics:

Man sieht einen Gehweg mit kleinen Beeten, alles ist grün zugesichert, dort steht auch ein Fahrrad

Straßen mit viel Grün, keine parkenden Autos, dafür Fahrräder

Am Kanal; gegenüber ist ein kleines Haus inmitten größerer, davor liegt ein Boot an

Eine Katze versteckt sich hinter einem Poller; neben ihr sind Fahrräder

Bin gerade in Amsterdam, und immer, wenn ich in einer größeren Stadt bin, die KEINE deutsche ist, muss ich daran denken, dass wir aufgrund unseres Autofetischismus für immer dazu verdammt sind, in kackhässlichen und menschenfeindlichen Städten zu leben.

Baudrillard’s 4 stages of simulacra applied to pumpkin spice Stage one (next to picture of pumpkin): Initially the sign (image or representation) is a reflection of basic reality Stage two (next to picture of pumpkin pie): the sign masks a basic reality. The image becomes a distortion of reality Stage three (next to Starbucks pumpkin spice latte): the sign marks the absence of basic reality. The image calls into question what the reality is and if it even exists Stage four (next to jug of pumpkin spice flavored coffee mate): the sign bears no relation to any reality whatsoever; it is it’s own pure simulacrum

Heute vor 65 Jahren sind meine Großeltern mit meiner Mutter im Bauch und mit meiner Tante, die damals noch ein Baby war, aus der DDR geflohen, weil mein Opa es nicht ertragen hat, die Kinder als Lehrer indoktrinieren zu müssen. Ihm wurde hier nichts anerkannt, er musste alles nochmal studieren.

2)... rather a technology with human simulations based on historical and psychosocial parameters that are decoupled from the current community. This development is worrying from an educational point of view, but I am only just becoming aware of the biopolitical,...

1) This is a topic worth thinking about further. While the production of truth used to depend on real people in institutions such as the church (inquisition, confession), education and jurisdiction, we are now entering a time in which humans no longer act as gatekeepers, but

Worth reading about humans and their usage of truth production techniques

"Once you realise that you can convince without sticking to techniques of truth-evaluation, you can disregard truth altogether"

As always, Ted Chiang is great in this interview.
